Creating a new layout
In a large system with many sensors in simultaneous use, it can be useful to have different ways of having the information presented. According to the operating scenario or your personal preferences, you can choose to work with a defined layout or creating a new one and apply that selection to your current presentation. In the New Layout dialog box you can create a new layout choosing one from the eight possible view combinations. The New Layout dialog box is located in the Load Layout dialog box.
Context
In this context, the different combinations of views is called layout.
Depending on your personal preferences or operational needs, the TV80 allows you to define your own arrangement -or layout- of the views. There are eight possible layouts available.
Note
By default, the TV80 software has several predefined layouts. The predefined layouts cover the most common sensor configuration. Depending on your selected gear, different predefined layouts will appear. We recommend the use of predefined layouts to get familiar with the TV80.
